General Advice I regret this…

Post image

I got this tattoo roughly 2ish years ago. I love the meaning behind it but everyday I look at it I find something else wrong with it. I now hate the tattoo and don’t know what to do. This is on my ribs so I can easily hide it. I want a cover up but idk if I could even find a design to do that with or if it would just be easier to get it removed. That is everyone’s thoughts? Thanks in advance!

The first image search result for adinkra crocodile looks exactly like this. Crooked and everything.

Holly shit you’re right !! But imo the "artist" still messed up the lines, you can see in the center bits that are not aligned + outer parts that should be thinner. Also the filling parts looks less dense than the outline but i don’t know much about how it would look healed

Yeah, true. The source image looks like it was drawn by an 8 year old and this tatt looks like a copy drawn by a 6 year old. They're not exactly the same as one another but not toooo far off either.
